Register now for the 2014 National Library Legislative Day (NLLD)!
For 40 years (!), there has been an annual National Library Legislative Day in the nation’s capital. Each year, over 400 library supporters travel to DC where they receive training and briefings to prepare for meetings with their members of Congress. Many continue their advocacy activities when they return back home by building on the relationships they established at NLLD.
Each state has a coordinator who arranges the meetings with legislators, communicates with the ALA Washington Office and serves as the contact person for the state delegation. Contact Mark Ranum, PCLS & PLS, for Minnesota specific information. Or, If you have general questions, please email Ted Wegner in the ALA Washington Office or call 800.941.8478
The NLLD registration page, also offers information about making a hotel reservation at the official NLLD hotel. This year’s event will be held at the Liaison Hotel in Washington DC on May 5 and 6. You can also find preliminary information about this year’s schedule.
